I doubt very much he left behind 2 children because he was stressed.
I believe he left this world knowing he was never going to see his children grow up either way

Agreed. This statement reveals horrendous classist bias from the writer, and an editor should have removed it. Very poor journaistic standards.

If more than one person is suspected of knowing what happened to Kyran, then I would have thought it beneficial to Gardai for a reward offered for information which results in a conviction as very often the love of money rules the way.

The Irish government or the gardai offering a reward for information is fairly rare, its only really done in cases where there's a potential ongoing threat to the public, such as when a reward was offered for info on the Kinahans during their feud.

Previously, CrimeStoppers used to be the ones generally offering rewards for information, but that stopped years ago due to funding issues.


That only really leaves private citizens to put up a reward themselves, which I think unfortunately, the family is unlikely to do. I suppose Kyrans fathers family probably would, but I don't know if their financial situation would allow it.

My apologies, it was me who posted the article. It wasnt behind any kind of paywall for me at all, and I'm not subscribed to any news sites, so I just kind of thought "Oh, that's odd, no paywall. Could it be a geo lock?" And just copied and pasted it 🙈

It's being reported that Kyran Durnin could have been missing for two years before he was reported missing. The grandmother claims he was asleep on the sofa the night before Dayla and Kyran went missing.
Bbm.
Hmmm...

Would WhyDonate, GoFundMe, myCause, iDonate Tap or a similar fundraising platform be a way of raising a reward in Ireland?

I would assume it could be, I'm not aware of anything in the T&Cs of GoFundMe at least that would prevent it, I haven't heard of the others you mentioned so not sure on them. Things like this happen so so rarely in Ireland that I wouldn't say its ever really been thought about.. Even when CrimeStoppers was still around, it was all like.. someone who broke into a pub and stole money from the register or similar, of course there'd be the occasional case of this nature, for example I remember Trevor Deely was featured and a reward was offered when he went missing, but in general crimes like these are rare in Ireland.

When I saw your pseudonym I thought nope that's not a good idea of mine to offer a reward.
I wonder if Kyran's fathers family could be asked if they would like to do it as they would be the ones to get the publicity and start it off.
How ridiculous there's no money in Ireland's Crimestoppers.
Australian taxpayers are currently throwing many many millions of dollars trying to catch a fugitive.
They're not spending much on poor Kyran but successfully offering a reward can lead to a result and actually save the government money.
To catch the fugitive, the Aussie gov't has offered a $1 million reward just for info leading to his arrest. And it's 'up to $1m', so they don't even have to give that whole amount out.
Rewards will either get someone to fess up about something they know or bring in someone who may just find the key to solving the puzzle.
